...sequel. It isn't the screen version of a best-selling novel, a comic-book franchise or the Bible. It's got a lot of battle scenes, so women certainly wouldn't want to go see it. It's also the most tree-hugging movie ever, with a defiantly leftish agenda - at the climax, we're meant to cheer when American soldiers get killed. And what does the title mean, anyway...

Conservatism is traditionally energized by a reaction to liberal excess, and the unabashedly leftish tilt of the Obama Administration's domestic agenda does give hope.

He dupes Alec Baldwin and other leftish members of the Film Actors Guild (FAG, in case you didn't notice) into being co-hosts of a peace conference in Kim's palace. Their criminal naiveté earns the thesps decapitation, immolation and death by giant felines...

...vilified in Scientific American magazine. He was found guilty of "scientific dishonesty" by a national committee of Danish scientists (the verdict was later overturned). With each attack, sales of his book boomed. And try as they might, the critics could not paint this mild-mannered, bicycle-riding, leftish vegetarian as a corporate apologist...
